if money isn't an issue, why not coilovers? BC seems to be a favorite on the site. For springs, I am on Eibach, they won't "slam" your car but the drop is decent enough to be noticeable and the ride quality is very close to stock. HR also makes good springs and will drop it lower than Eibach. Good luck.

If money is no object, get the best coilovers you can afford. Your handling, adjustability, and perhaps most important for a street car, ride quality will be miles ahead of springs.

However, spend at least 1200 on a set of coilovers. Cheap coilovers are worse than lowering springs. Many people on this forum, myself included, bought springs first bc they do seem like a good idea. We have since switched to coilovers.

Tein S-Techs drops almost closest to H&R's.
Eibach sucks =/, unless you want a mild drop and ride quality.

Eibach's here and am very happy with them. Any lower and I wouldn't be able to make it through a lot of parts of town. I scrape bad enough as it is. Ride quality was no different from factory and when coupled with the new sway bars the car handles like a dream now.
